Cutrine - Plus® Algaecide and Herbicide

A liquid algaecide that effectively controls a broad range of algae, specifically surface filamentous and planktonic algae. It also controls the rooted plant, Hydrilla.

Cutrine Ultra® Algaecide/Herbicide/Cyanobactericide

A premium
solution similar in nature to Cutrine – Plus® algaecides but with the added
benefit of an emulsified surfactant/penetrant combination. A highly effective
control for coarse (thick cell-walled) filamentous algae, mucilaginous
(colonial) planktonic algae, and Chara and copper-sensitive vascular aquatic
plants. This product controls planktonic forms; green and golden algae and
diatoms; filamentous forms, and benthic (bottom-growing) attached forms. It has
also been proven effective in controlling the rooted aquatic plant, Hydrilla
Verticillata, Egeria Densa and other copper-sensitive species. Waters treated
with this product may be used for swimming, fishing, further potable water
treatment, livestock watering or irrigating turf, ornamental plants or crops
immediately after treatment.
